Scotsman por Juliana Garnett
I really liked the characters in this book, but I still found myself skimming a lot. The history was kind of boring to me, but I still loved the story.

ClarisaO | 5 reseñas más. | Aug 13, 2014 | I rarely venture out of my Regency World of Romance and step into Medieval World of Romance and when I do my hopes and expectations are high. This book was published in 1998 by Fanfare, but last month (8/8/2011) was rereleased by Loveswept for Kindle and I was lucky to get an eARC of it for an honest review.
Having never read the author I was pleasantly surprised to find her prose to my liking. The hero and heroine, the medieval setting, decent pace and even the fairly predictable plot were quite good and kept my interest from the start.
As the story opens, we get the glimpse of our heroine, Ceara (Keera) at sixteen and we already know that she’s a handful for her father, Lord Balfour of Wulfridge as she confronts him on his fealty to the bastard King William. At eighteen, much has changed in Ceara’s world, but she has stayed the same, willful, strong and brave as always.
Luc Louvat is a Norman Knight whose bravery and fealty to the King William is well-known and upon finding out that Lord Balfour has broken his word, William is incensed and wants the man brought to him in chains and for that he needs Luc and his brave knights. William promises Luc an earldom and all of Wulfridge as a prize.
I’m not sure that this story will appeal to all of you, but if you liked BRAVEHEART, you just might like this story which is chock full of a battles and political intrigue. That’s not to say that it lacks in sensual department. On the contrary, this couple’s tale is not just interesting but very entertaining and very sensual. If you’ve never read the original, I think you should give it a try this time around.
